Policy coherence for sustainable development

Find

Focus

This new report highlights critical interlinkages among the Sustainable Development Goals under review by the 2018 UN High-Level Political Forum. It identifies institutional mechanisms and country practices for enhancing policy coherence for sustainable development (PCSD), and sets out options for tracking progress on PCSD at the national level using a variety of indicators.

These country profiles apply eight key elements - building blocks - of the Framework for Policy Coherence for Sustainable Development to identify good institutional practices for coherent SDG implementation. They are based on survey responses from 19 OECD countries.

We work to strengthen the capacity of governments to design, implement and monitor coherent and integrated policies for sustainable development. This entails fostering synergies across economic, social and environmental policy areas; identifying trade-offs and reconcile domestic and international objectives; and addressing the spill-overs of domestic policies on other countries and on future generations.
